Bally, already is the world's second-largest operator of theme amusement parks, announced the agreement Thursday. The proposed purchase, outlined in a letter of intent signed Wednesday, would bring to seven the number of major theme parks operated by Six Flags a subsidiary of Chicago-based Bally. "By acquiring this fine park, we have (gone) one step further in living up to our corporate theme: 'America's fun is Bally's said Robert E.

Mullane, Bally's chief executive officer. Mullane told a news conference Thursday that it would be "foolish to change anything major" at Great America, which will be renamed Six Flags Great America. Great America's rides, shows, shops and restaurants relate to the theme of the nation's heritage. The six theme parks operated by Six Flags Corp. are Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, N.J.; Six Flags Over Texas near Dallas; Six Flags Magic Mountain near Los Angeles; Six Flags Over Georgia near Atlanta; Six Flags Over Mid-America near St.

Louis; and Astroworld in Houston.

Main, Carbondale, IL cue CHICAGO (AP) Federal officials are looking for another bank to lake over accounts of United of America Bank, which they say failed because of excessive loan losses and an inability to provide adequate protection for depositors.

The bank, with assets of $34 nul-lion, was closed Thursday after state officials found it insolvent, the Illinois bank commissioner said. The Chicago bank has liabilities of $34.2 million, authorities said. The number of depositors at the bank, chartered in 1962, was unknown, officials said. Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. was named receiver of the bank.

If another bank is found by the FDIC, the bank's offices could open as soon as next week, said Bill Olcheski, an agency spokesman in Washington. Otherwise, he said, depositors will be paid the amount in their accounts, up to the corporation's limit of $100,000, "as quickly as possible. Ha ill-l (( FT Yes, We've got them.
